Cover; Contents; Contributors; Acknowledgements; Introduction; 1 Systemic Remedies for Systemic Ills: The Political Thought of More's Utopia; 2 More's Utopia: Colonialists, Refugees and the Nature of Sufficiency; 3 Goodbye to Utopia: Thomas More's Utopian Conclusion; 4 So Close, So Far: The Puzzle of Antangil; 5 Microcosm, Macrocosm and 'Practical Science' in Andreae's Christianopolis; 6 Tommaso Campanella, The City of the Sun and the Protective Celestial Bodies; 7 'A Dark Light': Spectacle and Secrecy in Francis Bacon's New Atlantis.
Within literature, history, politics, philosophy and theology, the interpretation of utopian ideals has evolved constantly. Juxtaposing historical views on utopian diagnoses, prescriptions and on the character and value of utopian thought with more modern interpretations, this volume explores how our ideal utopia has transformed over time. Challenging long-held interpretations, the contributors turn a fresh eye to canonical texts, and open them up to a twenty-first century audience. From Moore's Utopia to Le Guin's The Dispossessed, Utopian Moments puts forward a lively and accessible debate.
